Who will your team draft? It's never easy to predict, but you can be sure of one thing: he'll be on this list.
Every year, MLS teams are required to submit a list of players they may be interested in drafting. Add those players to a group of five underclassmen signed to Generation adidas contracts and six internationally-based players, and you have 257 young men eligible for the 2015 MLS SuperDraft, beginning at 12:30 pm ET on Thursday with Rounds 1 and 2 streaming LIVE on MLSsoccer.com.
Hailing from New Hampshire to San Diego and across the globe, 82 of these players will be selected by MLS coaches looking at this same list when the draft gets underway on Thursday and concludes with Rounds 3 and 4 on Tuesday, Jan. 20.
Do you think your school as a shot? Have you watched any of the players in a game? Do they have what it takes? Share your thoughts in the comments section below:
